Madam Wants a Divorce Every Day

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Old Mistress Huo knocked on the door a few times then called out, “Old Master Huo, I will give you another five minutes. After you are done talking, bring Ah Shen out with you for lunch.”

When the old man turned around again, he seemed to have calmed down. “How old is this Su Wanwan then?”

“She just celebrated her twentieth birthday today.”

Old Master Huo nearly lost his temper again.

Huo Jingshen was already thirty but he was getting into a relationship with a twenty-year-old girl? He really was just like his father – a sucker for beautiful women!

“She might only be twenty,” Huo Jingshen smiled slightly, “but she is a very sensible girl.”

Old Master Huo just huffed and said, “Make sure that Qinyu teaches her well in the future. Since she is going to become a daughter-in-law of the Huo family, she will have to understand the rules of our family too.”

Huo Jingshen remained quiet.

“Besides, you don’t have to get married so soon,” Old Master Huo said quickly, “She is still very young, and you have only just returned to China. You have not established a firm foothold in the group yet, and as a man, your career should always be your top priority. You should put your relationship aside first. The both of you can continue dating and get to know each other better-”

“I am afraid that is impossible.”

Old Master Huo gritted his teeth. This grandson of his was really testing his patience!

Huo Jingshen explained, “Reporters came to the Su family mansion to interview us just now. I believe everyone in Nanchang has probably heard of my upcoming marriage at this point.”

Old Master Huo sighed deeply.

In the dining room.

The Huo family had a large round Chinese table in their dining room. Old Mistress Huo pulled Su Wanwan to the seat beside her, and Huo Zexi sat opposite her so he could glare at her menacingly.

Su Wanwan felt that Huo Jingshen’s third brother was really quite childish.

By the time the maid finished serving the dishes, Old Master Huo and Huo Jingshen had finished their discussion and were entering the dining room.

Huo Jingshen sat down beside Su Wanwan, and Old Master Huo also took his seat.

“Since everyone is here, we can start eating,” Old Mistress Huo declared, and everyone began eating.

It was completely silent except for the sound of cutlery.

Su Wanwan lowered her head, about to pick up rice with her chopsticks.

“Wanwan, try the fish soup, it’s good for women,” Old Mistress Huo said brightly as she placed the fish soup in front of Su Wanwan.

“Thank you, Grandma.” Su Wanwan put down her chopsticks and picked up her spoon instead.

“Try the sweet and sour pork ribs too, it is Yunxiu’s specialty.” Old Mistress Huo turned to Huo Jingshen and ordered, “Ah Shen, take the dish for your wife.”

Huo Jingshen stood up and walked over to the other side of the table, casually picking up the bowl of sweet and sour pork ribs that was in front of Huo Zexi.

Huo Zexi instantly protested, “Brother, I have not eaten that yet!”

“Respect your seniors.” Huo Jingshen did not even look at him as he said, “You can eat it after your sister-in-law has had some.”

How could Huo Zexi possibly tolerate this injustice? He howled, “You are too much! Grandma, look what he-”

Old Master Huo slammed his chopsticks down on the table angrily and growled, “You can get lost if you do not want to eat!”

Huo Zexi immediately kept quiet and ducked his head, not daring to say anything else.

Su Wanwan was a bit unnerved but Old Mistress Huo was smiling widely as she urged, “Wanwan, try the pork ribs!”

“Okay.”

They finally finished eating in peace.

Though Huo Zexi was annoying and Old Master Huo was strict, Old Mistress Huo was very pleasant. She was not like the shrewd and evil wealthy old ladies that were usually seen in television dramas. She was so sweet and nice to Su Wanwan that she felt like the old woman was overly favoring her.

After returning to the living room, Huo Jingshen took his car keys and said, “We have something on, so we’ll be leaving first.”

“It’s only two in the afternoon, isn’t your flight at night? Where are you going?” Old Mistress Huo asked unhappily. She didn’t even have time to talk to her grandson and new granddaughter-in-law.

Huo Jingshen replied smugly, “My wife and I are going to get our marriage certificate.”

Su Wanwan’s eyes widened.

***

In the Su family villa.

A soft female voice sounded from outside the bathroom on the first floor: “Brother Yun, I accused you wrongly. I really did not know that my sister was in a relationship with your cousin brother. I won’t lose my temper anymore, so can you forgive me?”

“I’m not the one you should be apologizing to.”

“I know. I accused my sister wrongly and I should not have exposed the incident in the newspaper earlier. I will apologize to her the moment I see her,” Su Yanyan murmured, “Brother Yun, I will obey you and listen to everything you say in the future. We-”

“I will personally inform my grandfather and grandmother tomorrow that we have called off our engagement,” Xing Yuyun said indifferently and opened the door to leave.

Su Yanyan was stunned and quickly went after him.

As soon as she went outside, Jiang Yi stopped her and said, “Yanyan, calm down.”

“Mom, I already apologized to Brother Yun, so why is he still insisting that he wants to call off our engagement? We already sent out the invitation cards to all of our relatives and friends. If they find out that Brother Yun called off our engagement, I will be the laughing stock of Nanchang!”

“That’s enough, don’t make a scene,” Jiang Yi lowered her voice and said, “I have already spoken to Aunt Huo. She will try to persuade Yuyun, so don’t worry-”

“But he said that he is going to tell Grandpa Xing and Grandma Xing!” Su Yanyan interrupted her mother, sobbing hysterically.

She did not take it seriously when Xing Yuyun lost his temper before, but if he really brought this up to the elder generation of the Xing family, there would be no room for negotiation anymore.

Jiang Yi also realized the seriousness of the situation at this point.

She was about to speak when a maid suddenly said, “Madam, someone is looking for Sir.”

The study room door opened and Su Yuntang looked at the person standing outside. He frowned and asked, “You are…?”

“Hello, Mr. Su. My name is Ji Jie, and I am CEO Huo’s assistant.” Ji Jie took out his business card and passed it to Su Yuntang. “CEO Huo asked me to come here to pick up Miss Su’s personal belongings.”

As soon as he heard that, Su Yuntang immediately turned to the maid. “Go up and tidy up that bastard’s belongings so that he can take them away.”

“… Okay, Sir.”

“I am sorry, Mr. Su,” Ji Jie added politely, “I also require the household registration book. CEO Huo said that he needs it to obtain their marriage certificate.”

Su Yuntang immediately told the maid, “Go and get the household registration book too.”

Su Yanyan’s expression changed as she asked hesitantly, “Mom, Su Wanwan, she… is she really going to marry into the Huo family?”

“Don’t say anything,” Jiang Yi murmured, giving Su Yanyan a warning glance. After all, there was an outsider around.

Su Yanyan bit her lip unhappily. She had planned to steal Xing Yuyun away from Su Wanwan so that she would be ridiculed by everyone for getting dumped, but now…

How did she end up being the one getting dumped instead?

To top it all off, Su Wanwan was going to marry into the Huo family!

No, she could not allow this to happen!
